EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a legendary tale, "The Legend Of The Coronation Oil" depicted by the talented artist Cyrus Cuneo in 1910. The painting showcases an awe-inspiring moment as the Virgin Mary appears to Thomas A Becket, holding an ampulla shaped like an eaglet in one hand and a small vial containing holy oil in the other. In this mythical encounter, Our Lady reveals to Becket that kings anointed with this sacred oil shall become champions of the Church. The image beautifully portrays Becket's devotion and reverence as he kneels before her presence. Cuneo's attention to detail brings life to every element within this masterpiece. From the intricate design of the ampulla shaped like an eaglet, symbolizing strength and divinity, to the delicate features on Mary's face radiating grace and wisdom - each stroke tells a story. "The Legend Of The Coronation Oil" is not just a visual representation; it carries profound spiritual significance. This artwork invites viewers into a world where myth intertwines with faith, reminding us of our connection to ancient traditions and beliefs.
